Classes

ASL - Level 1

This
class teaches a student the basics of American Sign Language with
topics that include: Deaf Culture, the manual alphabet, numbers, and
colors. Students will also learn how to hold a simple conversation with a
Deaf or Hard of Hearing individual.

ASL - Level 2

Building
upon the studentís skills from ASL Level 1, this class goes into more
depth of the topics, such as, two and three digit numbers, vocabulary and
teaches the student how to identify buildings, people and clothing.

ASL - Level 3

Taking
the skill and vocabulary from the previous levels, students learn how to
locate objects in a room, or house, how to sign money numbers as well as
learning new vocabulary.

ASL - Level 4

Rounding
out the vocabulary series is Level 4. Students will continue to build
their manual alphabet skills as well as practicing the vocabulary they
have previously learned. This class also teaches the student how to
describe objects and activities that do not necessarily have a specific
sign without the use of the manual alphabet.

ASL - Level 5

In
previous levels, the focus was more on the basics of American Sign
Language, but this level begins to focus on the studentís ability to
participate in more extensive conversations and to tell and understand
lengthy signed stories.

ASL - Level 6

This
class starts to prepare the student to become a Sign Language Interpreter
or a professional working with the Deaf. It does this by focusing on
extended conversations and stories. Some of the topics include
health and medical signs, vocabulary and content related to diseases,
disorders and functions of the human body.
